An adverb is a word that describes a verb (“Linda swam quickly”), an adjective (“very short”), another adverb (“ended too slowly”), or even a whole sentence (“I finally bought a house”). Adverbs often end in -ly, but some (such as fast) look exactly the same as their adjective counterparts.
Examples
Sam ran well
Jimmy is very short.
The horse was going slowly
Perfectly recorded Lucy Tom's race.
